huge requirements.. or is it that they decided against UB (aka PPC and intel code), and opted for intel code only to simply their programming?
I am on a 1.67Ghz G4 DP with Radeon 9800 - pretty decent power, nothing to brag about, but I can get decent frame rates on most games. So the fact that I can't even run this tells me that.....
1. the developer is lame and needs to support G3/G4/G5/intel and all Nvidia and ATI cards ever made
or....
2. I need to et out of the jurrasic and get myself an intel-based mac before I die of old age.

Amazing game, although if you have the ability to use Bootcamp and Windows it is a much smarter choice to buy this game for Windows for several good reasons.
1) The expansion pack is only for Windows.
2) You can run the video settings much higher in Windows.
3) You can buy the Gold pack which includes the original EAW and the expansion pack for the same price that they are charging for the mac version of the original game.
...But if you would rather not waste time setting up Bootcamp and Windows, this game is pretty epic!
